Description

Sodium cocoyl glutamate (CAS 68187-32-6 ) is an amino acid-derived anionic surfactant produced by reacting coconut fatty acids with glutamic acid. It delivers effective cleansing and foaming performance while maintaining a mild profile. This skin-compatible ingredient suits sensitive-skin formulations across personal care and home care markets. In facial cleansers, shampoos, and body washes, it functions as a primary or co-surfactant. It generates a dense, stable lather without the harshness associated with sulfate-based systems. Baby care and sensitive-skin product lines rely on it specifically to reduce irritation potential while preserving soil removal. In mild household cleaning formulations, it contributes degreasing and wetting action where low-irritation, biodegradable surfactant systems are required. It also improves emulsion stability and surface wetting. This material supports uniform ingredient distribution across the substrate in leave-on and rinse-off formats. It is supplied as a powder or as an aqueous paste, with active content ranging from 30% to 95%. Standard grades include cosmetic and personal care quality meeting ISO 16128 natural origin criteria. Some suppliers offer material compliant with Ecocert or COSMOS certification requirements for green formulations. Technical-grade material is available for industrial cleaning applications where cosmetic-grade documentation is not required. This versatile surfactant remains a staple for modern, sustainable product development. Contact us for supply of Sodium cocoyl glutamate Request Quote
